Next question. This one is one a freind of mine wanted to ask so I am asking for him. He was moving his pumpkin and cracked step about 1/4 of the way through. He wants to put a material they use for grafting trees in the crack. What would be best material to put in there. If it is Captan where do you buy that? I have not been able to find it in our area. Also this slowed down this his growth a bit on that pumpkin. Will stem mend itself and get back on track with gains? Thanks. Steve
ps he also has a pumpkin from our encell 790 growing at is averaging 25 pounds a day. I knew this one really had potential. mine from same pumpkin has done 60 pounds in two days - insane to watch and I am just waiting for the disaster hahaha. Steve
